Session 3: At Home This Week
Review |
We Offer Bread & Wine, and All We HaveIn this session, we focused on the Offertory and how we offer ourselves and all that we have to God.
Start with a review with your child. Look through the handouts with your child, asking what he or she remembers or has questions about.
This week in Mass, help your child recognize what's happening during the Offertory.

Giving Gifts at Home
A home is a happier place when everyone gives each other gifts all week long – but they don't have to be things you've purchased and gift-wrapped. Being helpful and grateful to each other takes continuous practice and no one does it perfectly. We have to practice doing it daily.
The take-home page for this week has ideas for fostering a happier home in which everyone can take responsibility to make life easier for all the others. Don't underestimate what children can be taught to do at a young age. |

How God GivesHere's a fun little video from our Protestant friends at Chuck Knows Church helping us understand how God gives. He doesn't even wait for us to ask. We're challenged to give more like God does!
